G'day All,
Progress is steadily happening with the Late Romans but again there's nothing ready to show this week, largely because the weather has been appalling and both varnishing and basing is a real pain to fit in. There will definitely be a crop for next week though.
In the interim I'm still filling gaps with ancient fantasy lead. This week it's a small batch of Grenadier Models orcs and goblins. Some searching on the truly wonderful Lost Minis Wiki has allowed me to clearly identify four of these five as Lesser Orc w. Sword, Goblin of the Mount 1 w. Sword, Goblin of the Mount w. Axe and Lesser Orc w. Waraxe. I don't have Goblin of the Mount w. Spear unfortunately but a hunt has begun!
The last chap (on the extreme left) I believed was a Denizen Miniatures goblin but cannot locate him online anywhere. Answers on a postcard comment if you can identify him!
5 x 25mm greenskins = 25 points. Importantly (to me at least!) this takes me past my initial 1,500 point target, so I'm upping my target to 1,800 to push myself these last few weeks.
Thanks for looking!
Cheers,
Millsy

Well done Millsy - this is another lovely little "circuit breaker" while your late Roman troops continue to muster. All of these little green fellows have a classic look that will inspire a jolt of nostalgia for Challengers. The fact that the painting is sharp, and green "just right" is just an added bonus - great stuff!
And well done smashing through your points target!
Greg


Congrats on hitting your target, Millsy! Fabulous looking oldschool greenskins (Grenadier? Wow.).
ReplyDeleteNice work again Millsy on the retro goblins, I am pleased though to be able to help you with Identification of the last goblin on the left - Its actually my great uncle Kevin who was last seen by the family years ago saying that he was heading off to Mordor to make his fortune!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Great stuff Kerry. He shall forever after be known as "Kevin the Lost".
DeleteGreat work and congrats on the milestone. Love the red eyes and the dazed look of the chap on the right.
ReplyDeleteExcellent way back orcs Millsy. Wonderful work and miniatures.
ReplyDeleteCracking job sir
ReplyDeleteSplendid
ReplyDeleteI'm green with envy Millsy at how good the little fellas look
ReplyDeleteGood tip on the wiki, I wasn't aware of that. They do look like fun to paint!
